NAME

deep-finance-markov-buyer-journey — "Visit→favorite is shop-average. Favorite→purchase is half the median. Surface shipping cost earlier in the listing — that's your leak."

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Each buyer click is a state (visited, favorited, asked-a-question, bought). The transitions tell you where buyers drop off. Identify the leak; fix the listing step that's bleeding conversions.

"Visit→favorite is shop-average. Favorite→purchase is half the median. Surface shipping cost earlier in the listing — that's your leak."

EXAMPLES

Sakura uses this when she's looking for your specific leak in the funnel. A Markov chain over visit/favorite/cart/purchase finds the step that's half the shop median. "Your favorite-to-purchase is the leak. Show shipping cost earlier — that's the friction."

This method only gives a real answer above a sample threshold. Running it on a small shop produces a confidence band the size of the universe — useless. When the shop crosses the threshold, this lights up.
